Karle have you been to Real Designs today? Either my settings are screwed up or they've changed the format.

The armor belt on the two ships should be identical. That means no curved front, nor the grey line above. that extends on fron of the armor belt. The grey lines around the portholes should not be that long. This image should help: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/93982636/01445y.jpg

Also of note, the 1921 Tennessee did not have liferafts on the turrets. The 1921 had black and white measurement thingy painted on the B and Y turrets, like this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/939 ... na1925.png

The black and white measurement thingys are called Declination Marks;they were used so that following ships could calculate the observed ship's angle of fire. They kind of muddy the darwing though.

I'll fix the armor belt.

Sorry about the declination mark comment . . . I couldn't resist being a smart ass.

Here she is again.

The grey lines around the portholes are still too long. it should end almost exactly at the inward angle of the A turret. And you should add a torpedo tube near the forward end of the armor belt.

I sortened the gray lines and added the 21" torpedo tube.

The end of the gray line should be two portholes aft.
